Ascain Training and Support plan to host a dedicated Bike Day for service users from HSE Ascain and The Willows, providing access to bikes in a safe, supportive environment.
Many participants previously enjoyed cycling but, due to challenges with their mental health, stopped engaging in the activity.
This event aims to rekindle that enjoyment, offering a positive, empowering experience that supports both mental and physical well-being.
Last year, one service user was so inspired by the event that they purchased a bike and now cycle daily.
We hope to see similar outcomes this year, promoting confidence, connection, and a renewed love for cycling.
